Do you use LCD for graphics?

I have a 5 year old 15" IBM flatpanel with a 1024x768 resolution. Graphics and text look odd. There's a horizontal line on some images and looks like jagged. Slanted text are clipped to some degree that they don't appear slanted. I'm guessing this is inherent to all LCD monitors. My question is are newer flatpanels better in this regard or is there no way to get rid of these graphic oddities?
 
Yes, newer flatpanels are significantly better in terms of colour reproduction. Older 15" screens are very early LCD's that often had strange colour anomalies to go along with horrible response times (causing terrible ghosting in videos/games/etc).

For the best possible colour reproduction, get an MVA/PVA LCD screen (such as the Samsung 193P+ monitor). Even today's other panels have much better colour quality.

You can go into any Staples/Best Buy/etc to check out today's LCD's.
